Mike Jackson (born 1966) is an acclaimed British photographer. He is best known for his many years photographing a single beach in Pembrokeshire, Poppit Sands. He uses film based equipment and often photographs his subject at night. His work has been exhibited internationally. He is also a three times Hasselblad Masters Award finalist. POPPIT SANDS Michael's long term project is based on a single beach in Wales - Poppit Sands. He photographs the beach many times each year, totalling approx. 600 trips so far. He uses medium format film cameras to record the beach in black and white. The inspiration for the work is based around his interest in finding new ways to see common things. He is quoted as saying that the beach has become a central part of his life. This work has been ongoing for seven years and has been exhibited widely, most recently in a solo show at Beetles & Huxley in London 2014. ''"I know of no other landscape that changes so much, so quickly and so regularly as a beach. It is infinite in its possibilities. Why would I ever tire of photographing the infinite?" '' A CHILD'S LANDSCAPE When it is not possible to get to Poppit Sands Michael works on another project in his studio - A Child's Landscape. This work is based on pencil drawings of the Pembrokeshire coast. Michael collects rocks and photographs them while they are submerged in a fishtank. He then rotates them and turns them into unreal landscapes using a process called the Inverted Water Process. In 2013 Jackson won The Chris Beetles Award〔http://photodemocracy.createsend1.com/t/ViewEmail/j/A3B54C29E7A54C00/19021109E97EDBFFF6A1C87C670A6B9F〕 His work is available through Beetles & Huxley Gallery in London.(Click HERE ) Michael's website is available (HERE ) He is married with two children, he lives and works in Carmarthenshire,South West Wales, UK.
